Wool in use

Untreated wool and a blend of wool/silk provide a unique comfort. The garments are soft and stretchy and help to maintain a steady body temperature – not too hot and not too cold. This is particularly important for children. They are in constant movement and should not be restricted by tight clothes. Children are also prone to becoming clammy. Leaks and moisture can arise from the inside or outside, and they often become sweaty because they alternate between periods of activity and rest. It is a good thing, then, that the wool doesn’t get cold when it is wet and that it prevents children from becoming clammy. The garments made from untreated wool are often those that are worn again and again because they are so comfortable to wear.
